Missing Coat!
Anne Hamilton is missing the coat that she wore to rehearsal last week. Someone might have taken it by accident. It is a brown women's down coat, 3/4 length, size 16. She thinks the brand is Calvin Klein. If you found it, please let me know and I will connect you with her. Anne will be cold without it! |

Check Out Our New Website
We have moved to our new website and we invite you to take it for a spin.
After you land on the home page, you can scroll down through each of the choruses and find links to each of the chorus pages. At the bottom of each page, you will also find direct links to each chorus page.
Each website page features a chorus-specific calendar with rehearsal and concert dates. There is also a "Calendar of Events" link found at the top of each page that includes the rehearsal and performance dates of all the choruses
On the Ithaca Community Chorus "Music" page, you will find links to YouTube videos for this semester's music for both the chorus and the Chamber Singers. On the "Weekly Newsletters" page are links to each of the semester's email newsletters, updated as each weekly newsletter is published.
If you want to contact the ACI Board, a chorus steering committee, the webmaster or if you have a general question, email links are found on the "Contact" page. The direct link for this is found at the top of each website page.
We will (for the first time), be able to update pictures periodically and welcome hi-res submissions from members and friends. Contact the Webmaster if you wish to submit a picture.
There is still much work to be done on the website and if you find something that does not work correctly or some other type of error, send an email to the Webmaster and we will see that a correction is made. Or, just ask Ed at the next rehearsal.
